HarperCollins Publishers, 1998

A good intro to how life begins and grows.
This book gives a good introduction to how life begins and grows in and out of the womb. Using puppies gives children the chance to be comfortable with questions they may have about how animals and people are born. Although it was a little wordy at the end, this book held my four-year old's attention the whole way through.

Raccoon At Clear Creek Road (Smithsonian Backyard)

Soundprints Corp Audio, 1995

Tiny but charming
This is a pochet size hardcover book. The pictures in it are very delicate, and it's about the life of a mother raccoon. So as you can imagine, there's no surprising plot, but only protecting the baby raccoons, and searching for food,...etc. I think it's a good source for education, but not entertainment.
